Dean Baker Exposed CNBC's Maria Bartiromo with Economic Facts!

Maria Bartiromo is a two faced pundit. Dean Baker is an economist and is sharp as a tack. Bartiromo said that regulations were the cause of people not hiring. But Baker cut to her jugular when he said that if that were the case, hours worked for existing workers would be increasing.

Of course, hours for existing workers are not increasing, and therefore, the lack of hiring is a demand issue, not a regulatory issue.

The small business survey showed that a large majority of small business was not hiring because of regulation. But the fact that hours were not increasing for existing workers proves, as Baker says, that it is what you do that reveals the facts, not what you say.

But Maria, bless her little heart, was talking about demand destruction for the past year. She was talking it up until the Republicans have found themselves on the rear end of the polls. She is as two faced as her hero, Mitt Romney!

After Baker destroyed her with his simple analysis, she pitched the small business poll at the end of her show, like the put down never happened!

People aren't stupid, and they don't buy the regulation issue. The voters, that is.

People understand that wages for good jobs are being replaced by wages for inferior jobs. People understand that people are being squeezed by the trillionth QE. People understand that the middle class is under attack.

Maria, this is not rocket science. But apparently it is passing right over your pretty little head.

Some might say that she is just a pawn of the CNBC lords, and was given talking points to press forward for the Republicans. After Baker cut her down, she was laughing, maybe at herself. But she was argumentative with Baker, leading me to believe that she really was deceived into believing the talking points. That is what happens to two faced people.
